Max Weber defined authority as the power that is legitimate and accepted by those who are submitted to it. He distinguished authority into three types -

  • traditional authority
  • charismatic authority
  • legal - rational authority

These three forms of authority materialize in a hierarchical order. The authority of the State develops from charismatic authority to traditional authority and then finally into legal - rational authority.
